My cat is intollerant to rice and other grains and it really upsets his stomach and bowel. This is great alternative, seems to have lots of natural additives. However, was problem with the high meat content and low fibre, as had to visit vet who suggested psyllium husks to add to some grain free wet food along side this dry food. This seems to have balanced out his system and he goes regularly each day. Without the psyllium he became pretty consitpated. Otherwise is a great grain free and the only one he actually will continue eating. Other brands he went off them quite quickly- this has better flavour.
